Instructions for use

Reconstitute the powder vial with the diluent supplied by the manufacturer.

Must be given by SC or IM route, preferably in the upper arm.

(See Preliminary remarks on Vaccines)

Precautions for Use

Contraindicated in pregnancy.

As with all injectable vaccines and/or immunoglobulins, appropriate medical treatment should always be readily available in case of rare anaphylactic reactions following the administration of the product.

Storage

  • Powder: between 2°C and 8°C - Protect from sunlight
  • Diluent: a cold chain is not required for the storage. However, at least 12 hrs before reconstitution of the vaccine, the diluent must be refrigerated between 2°C and 8°C so that the diluent and lyophilised powder are at the same temperature (a thermic shock during reconstitution could reduce the vaccine efficacy). Do not freeze.
  • Vaccine reconstituted: between 2ºC and 8°C for maximum 6 hrs, protected from light.
  • The vaccine vial monitor (VVM) is mandatory on each vaccine.
